CK's Stage IV Lymphoma
Donation protected
About a month ago, my brother, Charles went to the emergency room for what he thought was appendicitis. The hospital did a CT and diagnosed him with Lymphoma and told him that the pain was from an enlarged liver. After biopsies of a lymph node and his bone marrow as well as a PET scan were completed, they confirmed Stage IV Lymphoma.
At only 32 years old, we were all shocked to hear not only that he had cancer but that it had metastasized to his liver, spleen, bone marrow and spine. Those of you that know my brother, know how he is not one to be sidelined. Charles was an active duty SSgt. for 8 years in the Air Force and is currently in his 4th year with the Reserves.
He is very fortunate that as a Veteran, he can receive his cancer treatments at a VA Hospital. Currently, he travels to one in Manchester, NH but it is almost an hour each way. Once he begins chemotherapy, this drive will no longer be possible for him to do alone.
My fundraising goal is to help him, his wife and his two young boys, find an apartment closer to the VA Hospital and to cover their living expenses for the 6 months of chemo treatments which we hope will result in a full remission.
Any help you can offer will make a difference but if you can't financially support please keep him and his family in your thoughts and prayers throughout his treatment. All prayers are needed!
